For what its worth, a reputation system can utilize an opaque i= value  
to isolate messages identified as abusive, provided the number of such  
exceptions is kept within a practical range.  The alternative might  
require each receiver to deal with abuse that might have been  
consolidated by the i= value.

Dave's draft  goes a bit too far when describing even the domain as  
being opaque.  Is this attempting to suggest the d= value is not that  
of a domain?

While the i= value can be opaque, any language that appears to lessen  
its relationship to that of on whose behalf the signature had been  
added should also warn against overlapping real and fictitious  
namespace if only to better support the uses described by ADSP.
